Of course! What's unfortunate is that some people are more comfortable with hard rules than with reasonableness. There are times when citing another Wikipedia article is perfectly appropriate.
Citing a particular revision, perhaps - the live article is too moving a target. And it should only be done as a 'per the sources cited here' way - the Wikipedia article itself is not the reliable source, but perhaps it might be worthwhile on occasion to refer to the set of references in an article collectively.
